To Be fair. Bahamut had dibbs on being a draconic world destroyer before Deathwing (Chains of Promithia depicted Bahamut as a world Destroyer before Catalysim, but in that instance, the Adventureres stopped him.) It's just that Deathwing was successful first.

All and all this was appropriate to Final Fantasy's overall themes, even with how close it was to Cataclysm in some ways.

That video displays everything I want in a single-player Final Fantasy game...

I wholeheartedly agree. This is the kind of next Generation Real Final Fantasy the series needs. I realize I am the only one that hates MMOs, but that video actually made me excited to be a FF fan.Can anyone tell me what is the Singer/title of the song playing in the back ground.

Kain: "Conscience...? You dare speak to me of conscience? Only when you have felt the full gravity of choice should you dare to question my judgment!"

it's the same song that was in one of the first cutscenes in version 1.0. it's a beautiful song. it's called "answers" by susan calloway.

Sorry to be nit-picky but the song is by Nobuo Uematsu, the vocalist is Susan Calloway. Just wish this was how it played in in game....instead of Mordor ..I a mean Mor Dhona crashing every 5 minutes and seeing 0 mobs when I was online...sigh....

people at work were all excited about black ops and then 3 of us broke off and started talking about final fantasy. we watched the epic video. i don't blink at all when watching it.. it's just so good. and it also makes me sad. i remember all the good times i had until i had to stop because it became pay-to-play..

FFXIV has a different feeling when you play it, I find it really difficult to explain, but no other MMO has captivated me in the way FFXI, or now FFXIV has. It's too bad much of the game architecture was poor under the hood, there's a lot of people sad to see 1.0 end (since they made so many improvements, the game is quite enjoyable now). In the end the servers could not even handle the final event properly :grumpy:

As a current player since launch (no breaks, eep) The end where Louisiox smiles in the wrath of Bahamut completely choked me up, players are calling him Eorzea's Hero for his acts, and requesting monuments built in his honour to be placed in A Realm Reborn. The Dalamud (meteor) story of FFXIV was absolutely fantastic, the players had no idea that Bahamut was imprisoned by it. Most knew that Dalamud was a weapon from an ancient civilization. A lot assumed it would actually fire at us, or just simply smash into Eorzea. The fact that it is Bahamut, and thus an Elder Primal, has huge implications to the storyline. We now know Bahamut has been imprisoned for several millenia, and that the Empire also had no idea that Bahamut was imprisoned inside. They too thought it was a weapon that could be used for war against Eorzea. Nael Van Darnus (the protagonist of FFXIV Dalamud story) did however have knowledge of Dalamud's secret, as he is from the bloodline of those who created Dalamud in the first place.

I haven't felt this stoked about a Final Fantasy in years. It looks like SE can still tell a great story after all. I'm now more excited for this than any FF in development.

even though i had to quit FFXIV when it stopped free-to-play (couldn't afford it) the video touched me too. probably not as much as someone like yourself that had been playing the game this whole time.. but i wish i would've been able to continue playing it. which makes me all the more excited that i'll be able to afford it once it comes out again. i just don't know if i'll have to buy another retail version or if they can just let us 1.0 people download it. :P

The world ended over the weekend, bringing a new trailer for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. The last save was November 1, but players were invited back this weekend to participate in the Hour of Reckoning, a last ditch effort to repel the descending of the lesser moon.

It looked pretty, but without any dialogue or context I actually started to doze off.

So If the big dragon was just going to blow everything up anyway, what was the point of the mass combat? Why even have an army? And Is the evil army even ok with getting nuked right along side the good guys? Did Bahamut discuss this with them before the fight, and did they agree to this? Like, hey, when I'm released, I'm going to kill you all too. What does Bahamut even get out of destroying the world anyway? Does he just want to look at a barren wasteland all day?

These are things us uninitiated want to know, heh.

It makes sense in context, from what I gather.
